I am also a staff member of VietRISE, a community non- <br />profit organization that organizes Vietnamese residents in Orange County. We have been working with senior <br />residents from Bali Hi Mobile Home Lodge, as well as Kona Kai Mobile Home Park, and are writing <br />collectively in support of agenda item #7, the ordinance to prohibit residential property and mobile home space <br />rental rate increases that exceed 3% annually, or 80% of the change in consumer price index, whichever is less, <br />within the city. <br />These comments below are in support of agenda item #7. These comments are from senior residents from Bali <br />Hi Mobile Home Lodge and Kona Kai Mobile Home Park and include translations to English. <br />Cuong Pham, 85 years old and Gina Nguyen, 74 years old <br />(Kona Kai Mobile Park <br />Chung toi la Ch&ng Pham va Gina Nguyen.

We are 85 years old and 74 years old, currently residing at Kona Kai <br />Mobile Home. <br />We have lived here for more than 20 years. We would like to thank the council members for helping senior <br />residents like us. <br />We've been working for 30 years, since the year we arrived in America, in 1991. Now that we've retired, the <br />two of us receive around $1,800. If rent keeps increasing by 6% each year then soon our family will not have <br />money to pay the landlord anymore. <br />Please help us in this time of need, council members. <br />Loc Nguyen, 69 years old (Kona Kai Mobile Park) <br />I <br />
